Kamaru Usman suggests Israel Adesanya emulate Anderson Silva’s approach to the end of his UFC career.
Adesanya (24-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) suffered his third straight loss when he was knocked out by Nassourdine Imavov (16-4 MMA, 8-2 UFC) in this past Saturday’s main event at ANB Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He has now lost four out of his past five.
Usman, who’s good friends with Adesanya, said “The Last Stylebender” has nothing left to prove after previously defending his UFC middleweight title five times. He’d like to see him do what Silva did before wrapping up his career, which is take entertaining stylistic matchups after reigning over the middleweight division for almost a decade.
